WOW!! These are both really great!! The archer has a medieval look, I don't mind the cloths, they offer great customising possibilities! The hair were first appeared in roman officers. The target looks interesting, i thought it would be made out of plasteline, or something, it loos weird, but I guess it works... maybe it needed more holes... I agree on the armguard.

The knight! WOW! I expected a worse helmet, but it looks far better than I thought. and his armour combination is quite intimidating... a good solution for a ... crimson guard  ;D Weapons are all old, but the broomholder is weird...

Thank you for these pics and revies,Jan! Something to look forward for next year  ;D

The archer looks great, I dont like that "knight" at all though, he might be more at home in science fiction than in medieval.. that helmet just as a very odd shape to it, then again some other newer knight helmets have as well, they are too wide and make the heads look rediculously big compared to their body.

Ýou're welcome.

It's true. Might be their doom as i said, on the battlefield they will always land on their heads. ;)

Also it may be difficult for them to get through doors and narrow passageways. Does the helmet let them fit through a regular steck type door?

regarding the helmet, it can be seen only as ceremonial, even in a fantasy setting, or for a warrior in a position of power! However, if this is standard equipment for a faction, it would still look awesome in big numbers  ;D again, so many posibilites on story and customisation!!!

Indeed, I've been wondering how to make a great looking minotaur using the helmet.

LOVE the archer, must have it! The knight is awesome too, really like the helmet. But I've never understood the point of a single knight coming with more weapons than he can possibly carry or use? Seems he could have been a regular special, with just one or two weapons and no stand to hold the spares.
